Hellobee Boards

Classics are always in my keep pile. After that, I look at books we've all loved the most.

The only type of books I'm donating at this point are ones that we/I never liked or ones that aren't good quality. (Actually, if they're really bad, I trash them.)

Good picture books are definitely still worth keeping in early elementary and even the board books with stories in them can be useful for reading practice. I may get more selective about what stays as we go on.

The only way I can bring myself to purging LOs precious books is by giving them to a friend. I think about which friend would want which one and it helps say goodbye. To me they are all good if I chose them. If I didn't choose them, it is much easier to give away.
